I’m Gabriela, an artist and paper engineer based in Lisbon.

I’m inspired by colour, shapes, nature and everyday life. Urban Sketching and cycling is the best combo to help me clear my mind and refocus.

The biggest joy is to make my illustrations come to life in a pop-up. It’s magic in the palm of your hands!

Many thanks for taking the time to browse my page, I hope you enjoy my artwork. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to get in touch.
